Wonders of Blueberries at the Blueberry Wonder Workshop

Recently, we went to check out the Wonders of Blueberries at the Blueberry Wonder Workshop, which took place at KL Wellness City in Bukit Jalil. This event was a feast for the senses, offering a delightful mix of informative talks, culinary demonstrations, hands-on activities and delectable treats centered around the antioxidant-rich Oregon Washington Blueberries.

The workshop began with a thought-provoking speech by Mr. Eddie Saw, Malaysia Representative of US Blueberries, a prominent figure from Total Market Solutions, shedding light on the fascinating journey of blueberries from their origins to their current status as a nutritional powerhouse. A representative of KL Wellness City, the venue sponsor, also shared some insights into the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle to complement the wellness-focused event.

Social media influencer and wellness advocate Iman Azman took to the stage to deliver an engaging talk on the significance of blueberries in our daily lives. These small yet mighty berries have become a staple in modern diets due to their remarkable nutritional value and versatility that can be incorporated into almost any dish and drink.

Iman added, “My little ones especially, love blueberries in their cupcakes and as a parent I feel more assured adding fresh quality and nutritious ingredients into their favorite snacks and drinks.”

The event’s gastronomic journey was further enhanced by Chef Zie Zie, who demonstrated the creation with a tantalizing Seared Chicken Quinoa Bowl with Fresh Blueberries. Attendees had the opportunity to witness firsthand the fusion of flavors that blueberries bring to both savory and sweet dishes.

Guests were then invited to participate in a hands-on cooking experience, crafting their own Blueberry Cream Cheese Mini Tarts and a refreshing Blueberry Colada Beverage. Following the culinary activities, participants indulged in a delicious lunch spread before coming together for a memorable group photo session.

As the workshop drew to a close, a certificate presentation honored the participants’ engagement in the event. The much-anticipated announcement of the winners of the Insta contest added an element of excitement and friendly competition to the day’s proceedings.
